Great Value

I needed additional headphone in my project studio and didnt want to spend a fortune on extra headphones for tracking. I decided to give these a go and was pleasantly surprised, really good quality and highly recommended!

Excellent quality

I have used these headphones for two years and they have performed very well. They have a very balanced sound although I found the upper treble region to be slightly piercing at times. The mids are clear and defined and the bass region does not suffer from any muddiness.

They are comfortable to wear although they do get very warm with prolonged use causing your ears to get sticky. The head strap is a little on the large size even when adjusted but this did not affect the comfort to any significant degree.

The packaging was basic and the material of the headphones isn't the best but at this price range it is clear that the focus was cutting costs on materials without sacrificing tone. They wont take a lot of wear but in a studio setting they don't need to.

Unbelievable sound for the money

These headphones amazed me when I bought them, I had no idea they would sound so good. They are very cost efficient, but the quality of them is astounding, really flat frequency response too. perfect for home studio or even to listen to music!

Very good value for money

Sound is on the level of an AKG but not his price. Great for recording.

No problems!

There is quite a bit of sound leakage, as these are semi-open, if this might be a problem then these are not for you. But the sound is good, I haven't personally had any problems with a mic picking up sound from these but if there are people around when I listen to playback they can hear it! The leather headstrap is starting to tear a little after a year of solid use, but they have taken some punishment. Would be happy to buy the same again.

Best mixing headphones on budget

First i was quite sceptical about these headphones as for this price it seemed imposible for them to be any good. I was WRONG!, Big time wrong. As maybe they lack in quality and some might say in looks too( to me they look awesome!), but they don't feel like they gonna fall apart anytime soon, you can put all that away when you hear them. They sound HUGE! I had an oppurtiunity to try out many high end studio headphones and these cans really stands out. The sound is very clear, a lot of bass end but not overwhelming. Mid range is where these cans really shine. I struggeled to find another pair that would sound that good in mid range. Top end is little bit harsh sometimes but over time when they break in properly i think its not gonna be an issue at all. Overall at this price point you can't beat them!

Low price, good sound

This headphones are absulutly awesome for this price.

I buy it nearly 2 years ago.I use it realy rough and only the end of the cable is a little bit attackt.

So i go on with the sound, this headphones can reach realy deep so people who love reggae, dubstep or other music styles with a massiv low end, will love them for the price.

But its not to compare with headphones in the higher money rate, they are not so clear and direct sounding.

They are awesome to wear they surround the ears and dont push to hard, so people with glasses can wear them over hours.
